Instruments of destruction...

I was perusing a junk removal website this afternoon to find a convenient way to get rid of a few odd items left over from the previous owners of the house. These oddities are tucked away, but the time has really come. Take a look at the photos below, and you'll see what I mean.

Anyhow, this junk website (1-800-GOT-JUNK) had a list of items that are prohibited for them to dispose of in our area. Please read along with me (this is the full list in their order):
  • Any items containing gas or oil

  • Any items that have oil in them

  • Any medical, biological waste, or feces

  • Any type of battery - including AAA-D

  • Flourescent lights

  • Paint cans or containers full of paint

  • Pianos

  • Propane tanks that contain any fuel.

Uh, pianos? I would like an explanation.

Well, if those are the gloves you use for gardening, no wonder you killed the camillia plant.

I've been in your basement. There are more than "a few" items left by the previous owners.

OH MY GOD! You have Pork Chop! (No, I'm not drunk.) But that horse. When I was a kid, I had a horse JUST LIKE THAT on springs that you ride. Apparently I named it Pork Chop. (Perhaps a precursor of things to come.) If it is what I think it is, PLEASE do not let the junk people have it. I will come get it.
